Background:
Understanding patterns of injury in England is challenging due to a lack of national injury surveillance data. Through recent linkage of a large primary care research database to hospitalization and mortality data, we describe the epide...

Changes in poisonings among adolescents in the UK between 1992 and 2012: a population based cohort study (2016)
Journal Article
Tyrrell, E. G., Orton, E., & Tata, L. J. (2016). Changes in poisonings among adolescents in the UK between 1992 and 2012: a population based cohort study. Injury Prevention, 22(6), 400-406. https://doi.org/10.1136/injuryprev-2015-041901

Background: Poisonings are a common cause of morbidity and mortality among adolescents. Yet surveillance data indicating current incidence rates (IRs) and time trends are lacking, making policy development and service planning difficult. We utilised...
